I responded as I did because it is not helpful for people to over-dramatize a medical condition or to add new symptoms which simply do not exist. The acute symptoms of celiac disease are not life-threatening and they are nothing like anaphylaxis. As I mentioned above, celiac does not cause anaphylactic reactions, and it is not an allergy. There is no need for a service dog for this condition. For more information about celiac disease:

Yes, the symptoms are similar to a gastroenteritis. Celiac disease does not cause anaphylactic shock. It causes malabsorption in the GI tract. Does the dog detect gluten or an oncoming reaction? Tell me, what is the treatment for a gluten reaction?
